Personally I'm using an iwata eclipse, which I love. Previoualy had the cheaper revolution, which was an awesome brush for the money!

Another +1 for the Iwata eclipse, however its a touch on the expensive side and you dont really need anything quite as good as this, if I were you I'd go for the Iwata revolution (gravity fed version) and it will produce super results.

The revolution is cracking, used one up to fairly recently. Just be carefull with the nozzle, I managed to break the threaded part off inside the body and it was more sense, economically to replace the brush.

I have the aztek airbrush and it's really not very nice to use, best thing about it is the wooden box it comes in, I'm looking at a new brush also and I keep coming back to the iwata eclipse.
This is the Aztek kit I've got http://www.wonderlandmodels.com/prod...set-with-case/ total waste of money if I'm honest. |

I've got the original Aztek in the little space age grey case, it's an alright airbrush, give me a shout if you're looking to buy one of them.
I use an Iwata HP-B, had it about 22 years, replaced the air valve once and the nozzle a couple of times but can't fault it. If you can afford one I'd go for an Iwata, they're all good. You do get what you pay for though ! |

I use Iwata HP-CR as it comes with a 0.5mm tip.

+1 on Iwatas, always used Badger Cresendos in the past but swapped over to a Kustom CS and really impressed with it

How often will you be spraying?
|
#14
|

|
||||
Just mine and my sons shells ever couple of months

If it for limited, personal use then the iwata revolution will be just perfect. I've seen them for under £80 and capable of anything you could throw at them.
It does sound like we're battering on about them, but they're cracking! I've read very mixed things about the budget NEO range though.

Ebay is your friend http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIRBRUSH-d...item43a936d82d
£23 - range of nozzle and needle sizes, hoses. I bought one - it works great, and as I'm only likely to spray one, maybe two, shells a year then it's perfect for me. |

I personally think it sounds pretty good to me, decent price and being a iwata you can pretty much guarentee it will be quality.

I was looking into the NEO range a while ago, as a cheap back up brush, but I read nothing positive. They're apparently just badged iwata, rather than designed and built by iwata.
For £20 extra, I'd buy a revolution every time. If you do go that way, I'd be interested in hearing how it goes.

Like gingapaint says it maybe worth spending a extra £20 but I wouldn't mind hearing how it goes if you do get one of these. |
